This study aimed to identify attributes that discriminate selected from non-selected players and predict selection into a rugby league development programme in older adolescent players. Anthropometric, performance psychological were measured under-16 (N = 100) under-18 60) trialling for with professional Australian club.

This study aimed to identify the relationships between lower limb muscle characteristics and mechanical variables derived from vertical (jumping) horizontal (sprinting) force-velocity-power (FVP) profiles.Nineteen subelite male rugby league players performed a series of squat jumps linear 30-m sprints derive FVP profiles, respectively. The theoretical maximal force (F0), velocity (V0), power (Pmax) were both (i.e., vF0, vV0, vPmax) hF0, hV0, hPmax) profiles. Vastus lateralis (VL), biceps...

Tredrea, MSJ, Middleton, KJ, Bourne, MN, Carey, DL, Scanlan, AT, and Dascombe, BJ. Load centralization does not affect the kinetic kinematic output of countermovement jumps. J Strength Cond Res 36(4): 1084-1089, 2022-This study aimed to compare kinetics, kinematics, performance jumps (CMJs) when completed with 2 different loading conditions (centralized or peripheral) across increasing loads. Seventeen subjects (12 men 5 women) randomly series CMJs loads separated by a 30-minute rest period...
To assess the validity and between-unit agreement of velocity monitoring devices during incrementally-loaded countermovement jumps (CMJ), 16 males (24.0 ± 3.5 yr) completed 12 CMJs on a force plate (FP). Performance variables were collected through two linear position transducers (GymAware [GA]) four accelerometer-based (two PUSH units, Bar Sensei units). Pearson correlations (r) coefficients variation (CV) demonstrated strong to very-strong relationships (r = 0.60–0.88) poor (CV 11.7–25.3%)...
